Guided Group Tours on La Palma
Wandertour 1 - Nationalpark Caldera de Taburiente
The Caldera de Taburiente in the heart of the island of La Palma belongs among the most fascinating attractions of the Canaries – or of Spain respectively. This imposing volcanic crater within the mountains constitutes, with its diameter of about eight kilometres and a depth of more than 1500 metres, one of the biggest erosion-craters of the world. In its extensive network of well sign-posted hiking trails between steep rock walls you will discover in our group tours valleys, torrents, waterfalls and spectacularly shaped pieces of rock in the midst of pine forests and a rich vegetation.
Walking Tour 2 - National Park Primeval and Misty Forest of Los Tilos
Walking Tour 3 - Tazacorte: El Time, Boating Trip, Costal Walk
Walking Tour 4 - Volcanic Route from El Pilar to Fuencaliente
The walking guide leads our group tour over black fields of ash, passing by extinct caters, lava streams and bizarre rock formations with a fantastic view onto the Atlantic Ocean. At the end, you reach on our trail Tenegual, the youngest crater on the Canaries, which erupted in 1971 for the last time. Near Tenegual at the San Antonio volcano, a visitors’ centre on the theme Volcanism on La Palma was established.
Walking Tour 5 - Valley of the Dragon Trees from Las Tricias to Bodega

Equipment & Catering
The right equipment for the hiking tours on La Palma is a precondition: good, solid walking boots, walking clothes with rain protection (it hardly ever rains, but still…), in the winter you will need an anorak for longer trails; in addition, you should pack sun protection, covering for your head, maybe telescope-sticks, bag- and headlamp; food and sufficient liquid for longer tours, since in only a few cases will it be possible to stop for refreshment.
